Cardboard packaging is manufactured from recycled paper and
should be deposited in the waste paper collection for recycling.
When disposing of the washing machine!
Cut off the mains cable and destroy the plug. Disable the door catch to
prevent young children becoming trapped inside. Use an authorised
disposal site.
2 Environmental tips
To save water and energy, and to help protect the environment, we rec-
ommend that you follow these tips.
Do not use a pre-wash for normally soiled washing.
It is more economical to wash full loads.
When washing small loads, reduce the detergent by half to two
thirds.
Pre-treat stains, and then wash at a lower temperature.
Use the energy-saving programme when washing light to normally
soiled garments.
In hard water areas, the use of a water softening agent can reduce
the amount of detergent necessary. See manufacturers recommen-
dations.

Preparing a Wash Load
Sorting and preparing a wash load
Sort washing according to the care symbol and type (see "Washing
types and care symbols").
Empty all pockets.
Remove metal objects (paper clips, safety pins etc.).
In order to prevent bunching up of washing and damage to washing,
close zippers, button up duvet covers and pillow cases, and tie up
loose straps such as from aprons.
Turn articles with double layered textiles inside out (sleeping bags,
anoraks etc.).
Coloured, knitted fabrics, as well as wool and fabrics with appliqués
should be turned inside out.
Place small and delicate items (e.g. socks, tights and stockings, bras
etc.) in a washing net, or pillow case.
Handle curtains with care. Metal rollers or burred, plastic rollers must
be removed or tied into a net or bag. We cannot accept liability for
damage.
Do not wash coloured and white washing together. This could discol-
our white washing or turn it grey.
New, coloured washing often contains excessive dye. Wash these sep-
arately the first time.
Mix small and large items of washing. This improves washing effi-
ciency and the washing is more evenly distributed during the spin-
ning cycle.
Shake out washing before placing into the washing machine.
Do not place folded washing into the drum.
Observe tips such as "wash separately“ and "wash separately several
times".

Washing Types and Care Symbols
The care symbols help you choose the correct washing programme.
Washing should be sorted according to type and care symbol. The tem-
peratures indicated in the care symbols are all maximum temperatures.
Cottons ç
Fabrics made from cotton and linen with this care symbol will with-
stand maximum wash actions and high temperatures. The COTTONS/
LINEN programme is appropriate for this type of washing.
Linen è ë
Fabrics made from cotton and linen which carry this care symbol will
withstand maximum wash actions. The COTTONS/LINEN programme is
appropriate for this type of washing.
Easy-care washing ê í
Fabrics such as treated cotton, cotton mixed fabrics, viscose and syn-
thetics which carry this care symbol need a softer wash action. The
EASY-CARES programme is appropriate for this type of washing.
Delicates ì
Fabrics such as those with layered fibres, micro fibres, viscose, synthetics,
as well as curtains with this care symbol require particularly careful han-
dling. The DELICATES programme is appropriate for this type of washing..
Woollens and particularly delicate washing 9 ì
Fabrics such as wool, wool mixtures and silk which carry these care
symbols require a very gentle wash cycle. The WOOL programme is ap-
propriate for this type of fabric.
Important! Fabrics with care symbols ï (Handwash) or ñ (Do not
wash!) must not be washed in washing machines.
Operating Instructions

Detergent and Conditioners
Which detergent and conditioner?
Use only detergents and conditioners which are suitable for use in au-
tomatic washing machines. Always follow the manufacturer's instruc-
tions.
How much detergent and conditioner?
The required quantity depends upon:
the extent of soiling of the washing
the hardness class of the mains water
the amount of washing
2
Should the detergent manufacturer not specify the dosage quantity for
less than full loads, reduce the detergent accordingly:
for a half load reduce the quantity by 1/3.
for a small load reduce the quantity by 1/2.
Observe the instructions for use and dosing provided by the detergent
and conditioner manufacturer.
Water Softening
For medium to high water hardness (hardness class II upwards) a water-
softening agent can be used. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions.
Then always add the appropriate amount of detergent (underdosing)
for hardness class I (soft). Your local Water Authority can advise you on
the hardness of the water in your area.
